Senior Marketing Executive

We are looking to strengthen Adelphi Automation’s industry presence as the business moves into its next phase of growth, offering a salary of up to £45,000 and the chance to work closely with senior leadership in an innovative, engineering-led environment. This is an office-based role where your ideas will directly influence how the business is positioned across specialist markets.

About Adelphi Automation

Adelphi Automation is a highly respected UK automation and robotics specialist, delivering bespoke engineering solutions to complex manufacturing challenges. The business designs, builds and integrates automated systems for customers across multiple sectors, including advanced manufacturing, construction-related automation and product-based robotic solutions.

What makes Adelphi different is its consultative approach - combining deep technical expertise with long-term customer partnerships. Rather than one-off projects alone, the business is increasingly focusing on industry-specific positioning and scalable product solutions to reduce risk for customers and build sustained market presence. This strategic shift creates a genuine opportunity for marketing to play a central role in shaping the company’s future.

The Role

This is a newly created Senior Marketing Executive position, reflecting Adelphi Automation’s commitment to investing in its brand, market visibility and lead generation activity.

Reporting closely into senior leadership, you will take ownership of delivering structured, insight-led marketing activity that supports growth across the UK, Ireland and selected European markets. You will work alongside sales, engineering and project teams to translate highly technical solutions into clear, compelling messaging that resonates with decision-makers.

This role is office-based, as collaboration with engineering, sales and leadership teams is a key part of how Adelphi operates.

Key Responsibilities

As Senior Marketing Executive, you will be responsible for:

Planning and delivering integrated B2B marketing campaigns across digital and offline channels, aligned to commercial objectives.

Supporting lead generation strategies by identifying target industries, applications and customer segments.

Creating high-quality content including website copy, case studies, brochures, presentations, email campaigns and thought-leadership material.

Working closely with technical and engineering teams to extract complex information and turn it into clear, customer-focused messaging.

Managing website content with SEO best practice in mind to improve visibility and engagement.

Coordinating social media activity and monitoring performance to refine messaging and reach.

Supporting the planning and promotion of exhibitions, trade shows, open days and customer events.

Tracking, analysing and reporting on campaign performance, using insight to improve future activity.

Conducting market and competitor research to inform positioning, messaging and campaign focus.

Liaising with external suppliers such as designers, printers and digital agencies where required.

Providing marketing support to the sales team, including collateral for proposals and customer engagement.

What We’re Looking For

Essential:

Proven experience in a B2B marketing role, ideally within engineering, manufacturing, automation or a technical environment.

Strong content creation skills with the ability to communicate complex ideas clearly.

Experience delivering multi-channel marketing campaigns and measuring performance.

Excellent organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities.

Confident working with internal stakeholders at varying levels of seniority.

Strong IT skills, including Microsoft Office and digital marketing tools.

Desirable:

Degree in Marketing, Business or other relevant subject

Experience working in industrial, automation, robotics or technology-led sectors.

Knowledge of SEO, analytics tools, CRM systems or marketing automation platforms.

Experience supporting exhibitions, trade shows or technical events.

What’s in It for You

Salary up to £40,000 - £45,000 DOE, depending on experience.

A genuinely influential role with visibility at senior leadership level.

The opportunity to shape how a growing automation business positions itself in key industries.

Holiday: 25 days plus bank holidays rising with length of service

A stable, well-established business with a clear growth strategy and long-term vision.

The chance to develop your career within a specialist engineering environment where marketing is valued as a strategic function.

How Many Robotics Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Robotics Job?

If you’re pursuing a career in robotics, it can feel like the list of tools you should learn never ends. One job advert asks for ROS, another mentions Gazebo, another wants experience with Python, Linux, C++, RobotStudio, MATLAB/Simulink, perception stacks, control frameworks, real-time OS, vision libraries — and that’s just scratching the surface. With so many frameworks, languages and platforms, it’s no wonder robotics job seekers feel overwhelmed. But here’s the honest truth most recruiters won’t say explicitly: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool — they hire you because you can apply the right tools to solve real robotics problems reliably and explain your reasoning clearly. Tools matter — but only in service of outcomes. So the real question isn’t how many tools you should know, but which tools you should master and why. For most robotics roles, the answer is significantly fewer — and far more focused — than you might assume. This article breaks down what employers really expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to focus your learning so you look capable, confident, and ready to contribute from day one.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Robotics Job Applications (UK Guide)

Robotics is one of the most dynamic, interdisciplinary fields in technology — blending mechanical systems, embedded software, controls, perception (AI/vision), modelling, simulation and systems integration. Hiring managers in this space are highly selective because robotics teams need people who can solve real-world problems under constraints, work across disciplines, and deliver safe, reliable systems. And here’s the reality: hiring managers do not read every word of your CV. Like in many tech domains, they scan quickly — often forming a judgement in the first 10–20 seconds. In robotics, those first signals are especially important because the work is complex and there’s a wide range of candidate backgrounds. This guide unpacks exactly what hiring managers look for first in robotics applications and how to optimise your CV, portfolio and cover letter so you stand out in the UK market.

The Skills Gap in Robotics Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Robotics is no longer confined to science fiction or isolated research labs. Today, robots perform critical tasks across manufacturing, healthcare, logistics, agriculture, defence, hospitality and even education. In the UK, businesses are embracing automation to improve productivity, reduce costs and tackle labour shortages. Yet despite strong interest and a growing number of university programmes in robotics, many employers report a persistent problem: graduates are not job-ready for real-world robotics roles. This is not a question of intelligence or dedication. It is a widening skills gap between what universities teach and what employers actually need in robotics jobs. In this article, we’ll explore that gap in depth — what universities do well, where their programmes often fall short, why the disconnect exists, what employers really want, and how you can bridge the divide to build a thriving career in robotics.
